Jennifer Lopez made a striking statement at the New York City premiere of her new film 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' on 6th October. The 56-year-old superstar paid tribute to her latest project with a sculptural Harris Reed gown that perfectly captured the essence of the movie’s mysterious and dramatic themes.
Lopez arrived on the red carpet wearing a stunning brown and taupe floral gown featuring a bold, spider-inspired bodice—a true work of art from designer Harris Reed. To keep the focus on the intricate design, she opted for a sleek updo, soft glam makeup, and minimal jewellery designed by Hassanzadeh.

The gown came from Harris Reed’s Spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection, a line that the designer envisioned as a celebration of individuality and self-expression. Reed described the pieces as bold characters meant to perform on their own, inspired by icons such as David Bowie, Mick Jagger, and Victorian-era elegance infused with English heritage flair.
More About Jennifer Lopez's 'Kiss of the Spider Woman'
Based on the 1976 novel by Argentine author Manuel Puig, 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' tells the story of Valentín, a political prisoner, and Molina, who has been jailed for public indecency. As the two share a cell, an unexpected bond forms between them when Molina begins retelling the plot of a glamorous Hollywood musical starring the fictional actress Ingrid Luna.
The latest adaptation, which first premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, reimagines the classic stage musical created by Kander, Ebb, and Terrence McNally. It also pays homage to the 1985 film version featuring William Hurt, Raúl Julia, and Sônia Braga—all of which trace their origins to Puig's acclaimed novel.

Jennifer Lopez and Affleck's relationship has long been in the public eye. The two were originally engaged in the early 2000s before parting ways in 2004. They rekindled their romance in 2021, married in Las Vegas in 2022, and later celebrated with a private ceremony in Georgia. Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, which was finalised in January 2025.
In a candid interview earlier this year, Affleck reflected on their split, saying that there was no scandal or drama behind it—only two people trying to navigate their lives and relationships as best they could.
'The Kiss of the Spider Woman' premiere not only highlighted Jennifer Lopez's powerful return to the big screen but also reminded fans why she remains one of Hollywood’s most captivating and resilient stars—both on and off the red carpet.
